Set the centerpoint to the spot the camera pointed to. Usually itÂ´s a point in the height of the cameraÂ´s horizontal looking position. After doing so use "automatic horizont", in harder cases the "vertical lines" tool. With that you can streighten every pano vertically.

Looks like the nadir is centered.

Imagine you took a laser pointer and laid it on the tripod pointing the same way the lens points. Those are the places you can put a centerpoint. Pick one that is directly above or below the center point of your pano. If you pick a point left or right of the centerpoint (where the sky meets the ground), you'll have to rotate the pano 90 degrees, but I sometimes use these points because they're easier to find.

Also, try turning on the CP editor before you do this. If you shot two or more rows, the links will make circles around the vertex and nadir. Try centering the pano with the centerpoint tool to a spot to the right and notice the pattern then. Then rotate 90 degrees, and see what the links look like.
